Something weird is happening at Samsung's Black Friday sale.

The Black Friday Samsung deals are here in full force, but while most shoppers are heading to straight to sites like Amazon and Best Buy, you can win big by heading straight to the source. Pick up the Galaxy Z Flip 7 (256GB version) from Samsung before the Black Friday sale comes to an end and you'll be eligible for up to $600 off with trade-in OR a straight $300 off if you skip the trade-in process altogether.

The weird part is that the $300 off discount doesn't always appear. Sometimes the no-trade-in discount appears as $200, but then you refresh the page a few times and an additional $100 is added. For the life of me, I can't figure out what's causing the bonus discount. Is it a bug? An incentive for folks who have used the Galaxy Reserve program? Is it based on region? All I know is that it beats Amazon's Black Friday sale by a full $100, so if you see this record-smashing price drop on the Galaxy Z Flip 7, act on it.

It's a record

Head to Samsung during the site's big Black Friday sale and you'll be eligible for up to $600 off the Galaxy Z Flip 7 when you trade in an old or broken phone. Skip the trade-in process altogether and you might get $300 off, which is a record-smashing discount for the popular foldable. Don't see the $300 off? Refresh your page a few times to see if it appears. Buying from Samsung also gets you access to exclusive color variants that you won't find anywhere else!

✅Recommended if: you want to score a historic discount on an eye-catching clamshell smartphone with powerful performance, a nearly-creaseless build, and all of the latest AI features.

❌Skip this deal if: you don't care about flip phones; you'd rather buy the device through your wireless carrier; you can get a better deal on our number-one favorite flip phone, the Motorola Razr Ultra.

Putting it simply, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is pure luxury, boasting an ultra-lightweight build, two AMOLED displays, and a nearly-invisible folding hinge. Under the hood you get the Samsung Exynos 2500 with 12GB of RAM, plus an upgraded 4,300mAh battery, seven years of OS and security upgrades, and all of the latest AI-boosted software features.

If I had to nitpick, it is worth mentioning that the Z Flip 7 didn't receive any significant camera upgrades over its predecessor, charging is relatively sluggish, and the Motorola Razr Ultra might offer the better experience if all you care about is using the world's absolute best flip phone.

Still, going with the Galaxy Z Flip 7 is hardly a sacrifice, as the device offers one of the best foldable phones experiences on the market, and the ultra-lightweight build is simply unmatched in this space. Throw on a historic (albeit confusing) Black Friday discount and I can say with confidence that there's never been a better time to buy the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7. Why wait?
